Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hole in the ground for transferring geothermal energy from the ground around the hole to an energy carrier fluid which is introduced into the hole.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a hole of the above-mentioned type whereby the above-mentioned disadvantages can be avoided.
  • a platform 1 whose upper section projects up above the surface of the sea 6. From the seabed 5 near the platform there extend two substantially vertical hole sections, viz. a first hole section 2 and a third hole section 4 to locations 7 and 8 respectively in the ground formation from which oil or gas have been extracted and brought up via the hole sections 2,4.
  • an additional or second hole section 3 should be drilled which connects the locations 7 and 8 to each other, thus providing a hole loop comprising the first, second and third hole sections 2,3 and 4 respectively.
  • this fluid By passing a suitable fluid, such as water, down into the first hole section 2, this fluid can flow on through the second hole section 3, where it is heated by the surrounding ground, and subsequently up through the third hole section 4, without the heated fluid in the third hole section 4 being cooled by the down ⁇ wardly flowing, cold water which is passed down into the first hole section 2.
  • a suitable fluid such as water
  • the additional hole section 3 can extend in a relatively large loop away from one location 7 before it extends towards the second section 8, thereby ensuring that the fluid is heated to close to the temperature of the ground around the second hole section 3 before flowing upwards and out of the third hole section 4, even though the through-flow rate is high.
  • thermoelectric energy there can be provided on the platform a known per se installation (not shown) whereby the heat energy may be converted to another suitable energy form, e.g. electrical energy, and supplied to a consumer.
  • This installation may comprise, e.g. heat exchangers, turbines, generators etc. and it is assumed that it will be familiar to a person skilled in the art.
  • the invention permits a re-use of installations and wells, the decommissioning of which would have entailed major expenses for the owner.
  • the invention provides energy whose release does not pollute the environment, and which is obtained from an almost inexhaustible source.
  • the temperature in the earth is approximately 90 - 150 degrees C.
  • Two bore holes each having a length of approximately 3000 m for extracting oil or gas at present cost approximately NOK 150 million.
  • An additional deviated hole which has a length of approximately 1000 m and which connects these two bore holes costs approximately NOK 20 million.
  • the drilling field Statfjord B in the North Sea comprises approximately 40 wells which together with the platform will probably be closed down around the year 2003.
  • these wells could form part of 20 hole loops for the production of geothermal energy, and the platform could be used as the mounting location for the above-mentioned installation.
  • this thermal power can provide an effective output of approximately 5 MW.
  • the 20 hole loops in this oilfield would thus be capable of providing a total output of 100 MW.

Abstract

Trou de forage pour le transfert de l'énergie géothermique du sol entourant le trou vers un liquide de transfert d'énergie introduit dans le trou. Les extrémités inférieures (7, 8) d'au moins deux sections sensiblement verticales (2, 4) du trou sont reliées entre elles au moyen d'une section trou supplémentaire (3), les deux premières sections ayant déjà été utilisées pour l'extraction de pétrole ou de gaz.
